This was the first book I read when I was 15 years old. I was a shy, quiet kid, who was always trying to figure out how to make friends. I had the usual trouble finding the right words to describe my thoughts, and I didn’t have the confidence to express them in a coherent manner—but I did have the confidence to put it all into writing.
It was the first book I felt I had a “voice”. It was the first time I felt like I was “in charge”. It was also the first time I saw myself as an author. I also read it at a time when I was most depressed, as this was the first time I had a book that helped me find my voice.
I read it because I was depressed. It got me through a tough time.
I read the book because I wanted to be an author. It was an eye-opener, but also a little lonely. It taught me that I can be an author without the need for a publisher.
I’m not entirely sure how I feel about it. On one hand, I feel like I was forced into it, I had no choice. I’m glad that it helped me find my voice because it helped me feel a bit more confident in my own writing. On the other hand, I feel like it was a waste of my time. While I feel like I’m an author, I didn’t get to write the book that I wanted to write.
I actually think the only thing that I’m passionate about is writing. There really are writers that I admire, but not the ones that would consider themselves writers. I dont pretend to know how writers actually feel though. Most of the time I think of myself as a semi-imaginative person that is excited about the future of storytelling.
I’m not a writer. I just write the way I write. I don’t think I’m a great writer, I just write the way I write. I feel like I’m the first person who ever got published (in the book I wanted to write), but there are thousands of people who were published before me, and many of them were also just semi-imaginative.
Im not a writer either. I just like words and writing. I just like words and writing. I just like writing.
I write like I write. I just like writing. I just like writing. I just like writing.
That’s me, my name is David. I write like I write.
